GPS failed intermittently, pity everything else was fine but i really need SAT NAV for my work.
[Desire Android Development] AzureusPT:
I did around 400Km this weekend with the car and the GPS on without any problem. Might not be a ROM issue.
[Desire Android Development] mattman83:
It has A2SD in the sense that it will put apps by default on your EXT3 partition you've set up on your SD card (assuming you've done that). If you have done the above, check that you're using EXT3 or EXT4 not EXT2. Also check that it's at the end of your card and not the start. If you haven't done the above, do a search (forums or google, whatever) on how to set up an EXT3 partition.

I have an EXT3 partition as set up with Rom Manager and it works flawlessly with other roms. Although, I think one of the roms I used (MIUI), updated the extension to EXT4 using some sort of script.

and one more thing, i have ext4 partition but i dont wish to use APP2SD. want to rely on the data partition 100%, how can i do that? remove the ext4 partition? if possible dont want to remove it.

DevNull to Oxygen 2.0

Accidently flashed Oxygen 2.0 over DevNull w/o wiping. No problem whatsoever... Just wondering if I should do a proper flash with wiping...:)
[Desire Android Development] d1n0x:
I guess you will have no choice but to remove it. Why would you want to keep it anyway, if you don't want to use a2sd+? Makes no sense to me :D
[Desire Android Development] Caspian3011:
On every previous version (RC's and testing) I had a custom framework.res.apk with smooth battery icons from ClassicalGass instead of the jazzk ones and everything worked normally. But with the 2.0 final I get a boot loop after pushing the custom framework-res.apk. And yes I've made a new one (extracted the original one from 2.0 zip and replaced the icons). Any suggestions? Could the size of framework archive be causing this (3.6 Mb compared to 3.2 of the original)?

Open the oxygen.zip in WinRar and go to system/etc/init.d and remove 10app2sd script. Then close WinRar and flash that.
[Desire Android Development] wildcardspv:
Been waiting for an Oxygen update for ages so great to see this has arrived, as well as all the positve feedback.

The only thing for me is I'm not S-Off and am reluctant to do that in case I brick the phone, so I haven't messed about with HBoot tables etc, therefore I only have the standard amount of free space available.

I currently use Redux with A2SD+ and have my dalvik cache moved to SD for the extra free space.

This ROM only supports A2SD, so I won't be able to move the dalvik cache to SD when I'm running this ROM - is that right?

I realise this is probably obvious for some of you, and I'm pretty sure that my suspicions are right, I just want to be sure before I waste my time flashing this ROM, finding out I have too little free space and then having to restore Redux again.

Thanks :)
[Desire Android Development] Marreboy:
ROM working great. Full wipe from latest test build.

Small thing only, noticed that the notification sounds have changed. Seems like Froyo notification sounds, not the new ones from Gingerbread. Just thought I'd mention it in case it was not intentional.

Also can't wait for the release with trackball wake.. :) Thanks for great work Adam and all others working on this ROM.
[Desire Android Development] AssassinSvK:
try it again, full wipe+dalvik wipe then flash 2.0, if you will stuck again try different radio or kernel, for me working great after wipe no problem occurred

If you're concerned about your battery drain, you should probably flash the .37 kernel instead. Most people are experiencing way better battery up-time.

Did a search of the thread and couldn't find an answer to this....

While listening to the FM Radio and a text message comes through the sound from the radio is shut off and doesn't come back until you go back into the app and restart it.

This usen't to happen in RC7, where the sound would just get turned off while the alert came through, but start again straight away.
[Desire Android Development] m3xx:
Thanks, I'll test the .37 kernel at the end of the week, after my important exam (i was afraid of running out of battery so that the alarm won't work).

[Desire Android Development] pigbrother:
I have a pretty strange problem and I'm pretty sure I saw a similar post but I'm not able to find it now...

Sometimes, when I start an application, the screen is black. The app works, i can press the menu button, see the menu and access the functions. If the application has another full screen menu, like Options, i can access it, it shows without problems and, if I press back, see the applications as it suppose to be- the black screen is gone. When this starts to happen, I can't reboot my phone eighter - the screen just goes blurry and that's all, i can press Back and everything is just like I didn't tried to restart the phone at all.

thalamus kernel, no other customisation. Before flashing the ROM I wiped everything that could be wiped (system, data, dalvik, cache, battery stats and so on). This happened with both Zeam Launcher and Launcher Pro.
[Desire Android Development] AlxMAX:
I suppose you have the Android SDK already set up (drivers, adb, fastboot). Try to plug your phone to your PC, launch adb logcat, wait for the text to stabilize (it might several some seconds), then try to reproduce the error and see what happens on the console.

I recharge every night, no bootlooops, no FC, no strange behaviors

just the clean rom without ext partition + latest .37 vorkkernel (128 to 1152 ondemand trough OS monitor)

the stablest configuration ever had on an advanced mobile device (come from WM)

Hi,

Could confirm if i need to create a partition for the AD2SD to work please. Just got a new SD card and wanna make sue i get it all setup perfect :0)
[Desire Android Development] pmcguire:
Install the Alpharev Oxygen HBOOT and you don't need to worry about AD2SD
[Desire Android Development] feueri:
can this oxygen hboot be installed after the rom has been flashed or does it wipe everything in internal memory ?
[Desire Android Development] AzureusPT:
Since the oxygen HBOOT is mainly to avoid using app2sd I would suggest you:

1) Wipe all data

2) Install Oxygen HBOOT

3) Install Oxygen ROM

4) Enjoy!
[Desire Android Development] khenderick:
No, but this has been asked before. The rom has wifi-n, but only at the 2.4GHz frequencies.
[Desire Android Development] chief1978:
Don't forget to re-partition SD Card to remove the EXT Part. ***WARNING** this removes all your data from the SD Card.
[Desire Android Development] xaps:
The BCM4329G only supports 2.4 GHz.
[Desire Android Development] Lanbase:
okay, and now the answer to your question;

yes it will wipe, but yes you can, as described aswell on the alpharef site.

first make a nandroid backup of your rom in recovery, then boot in fastboot and perform the fastboot commands to flash the desired hboot partition table.

after that restore your nandroid backup and all will be good.

---------------------------------

About the ext partition; its up to you wheather you want to delete it or not, if you want to install over 330mb of apps it will still be usefull.

If you think 330mb is enough then deleting it (repartion your sd card)

is the way to go for better performance.

I don't understand people stating

app2sd with ext partion becomes obsolete after aplying different hboot. Especialy games are space hogs, and some of us DO have the need for more space then the ~190 mb max gained after flashing the oxygen hboot.

The 330mb of space is dedicated to continously growing dalvik cache in those cases.

wifi wont connect

Hey everyone, i just installed this rom and everything is great. I had to enable broadcast SSID for the first time to connect to my wifi and it connects fine, but when i go back and disable broadcast SSID the wifi drops out instantly. I have the wifi name and password stored but it drops out if the SSID isnt being broadcasted.

Has anyone got any ideas could it be a kernel thing? My kernel is 2.6.35.8-vorkKerneladamg

Try a different kernel first, it contains the wifi drivers.

[Desire Android Development] Sideburnt:
I'd be tempted to roll back to kernel-2.6.35.11_r7, the advice on the homepage is to use the r5 release but this is historical.

I'm pretty sure I'd avoid the 2.6.37... and 2.6.38... releases as these have a host of bugs associated with them.

Similar post to this got deleted :(
[Desire Android Development] colonia27:
Why not just have a look into the "known issues" file on thalmus' page ?!!
[Desire Android Development] :
You are talking uninformed nonsense, like many on here, which is why I really cannot be bothered posting on XDA any longer.

The 37 kernels I release and which is included with Oxygen have 2 bugs, neither of which are showstoppers and neither of which will bother the majority of users.

1) Slow USB mass storage writes.

2) Android native VPN won't connect. (OpenVPN does work)

However, the 35 kernel has a bug which causes it to go into a suspend/resume loop, which drains the hell out of the battery, normally triggered when wifi sleep mode is set to anything other than never, but happens at other times also.

The 37 is superior to the 35 in terms of performance and power management, hence why I tell people not to flash the 35 unless they need fast USB mass storage writes or they want to use the Android native VPN.

As for 38, I wouldn't and never have suggested anyone use that for day to day use, and if you are, don't.
[Desire Android Development] juicebox666:
Those aren't bugs. They are short-comings of the current kernel but they aren't thalamus' fault but problems within the code base that the kernel is built from. The slow USB problem is livable for me and I don't use VPN.

The .37r6 kernel is a solid performer with excellent battery life. That's all I can ask for in any kernel.
[Desire Android Development] Locked65:
@mattman83

Kernel bug, flash one of thalamus' newer kernels and it'll fix

Ill give that a shot :)

It's possible this is a hardware fault, some desires have bad mobo's that cause reboots. Did you do a complete wipe when coming from RC7?

Complete wipe. Trice.

Give it a shot - most of us get great battery life

What apps did you delete? May or may not be a problem.

i really cant remember lol. Email is the only one i remember. Wasnt more than 3 apps or something.

Thanks for great answers ! Locked out

Is there any way getting the T-Mobile theme implementation on Oxygen with a flashable zip or something?
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
No

This theme implementation needs a lot of changes within the framework which can't be done by a flashable file.

There was a version if oxygen which has had these changes but you won't have any success until Adam decides to add it again (or you build your own ROM which supports the themes of T-Mobile ;) )

[Desire Android Development] TheBlueRaja:
Hi All,

I've noticed a couple of minor issues and wondered if they were ROM related.

I'm running oxygen Version 2.0.1 and Radio version 32.54.00.32U_5.14.05.17.

Firstly, when i switch off Wifi, sometimes, but not always, the mobile network does not kick in. I have to turn on Airplane mode, then back off again before it kicks in.

Secondly, the call volume doesn't seem to change much when i use the volume buttons, the screen shows the In Call Volume going up and down but the level its reduced by either small or not at all. So even when its right down it can still be too loud.

Im not sure if it only happens on some calls, i just tried it again there and it seemed to reduce correctly, but there have been other calls when it was as if the volume buttons didnt work and the callers voice was so loud i've held the phone away from my ear, although it was showing as changing the volume on screen.

Any ideas?
[Desire Android Development] ledzgio:
First day Oxygen 2.0.1 usage. Here are the issues i've found:

- When the phone wake up (by pressing the power button) the unlock slide doesn't move but it unlocks the screen normally (it is being solved after reboot).

- Sometimes the touch stop working and i have to wait some seconds (or go into sleep mode and back) to have the control again;

All the rest stuff seem working properly until now.
[Desire Android Development] d_u_g_i:
I noticed sometimes when I put mobile on charger, phone reboots and goes in somekind of loop. It doesn't boot ever. I had same problem on rc7.

Does anyone know what could be the problem?
[Desire Android Development] trinity1:
1. change radio

2. install Quick Settings by Sergej Shafarenka. Then you'll be in control of ALL the volume settings (Ringtones, notifications, media, alarm, calls, system) with one touch. Not aware whether there are similar apps.

Oxygen logo loops

Hi,

first of all, superb ROM, definitely one of my favorites. I only have one problem with it, from time to time ROM goes into Oxygen logo loop, and it never stops. Only way is to remove battery and boot again. Happened to me last night and I was late for work because my alarm clock didn't go off.

I read through the tread, but as far as I can see no definite solution for people with this problem? I cannot say any particular action is causing this, sometimes it happens while using the phone, sometimes when not using it.

Is there some way to get logs for this problem? Alogcat doesn't show anything prior to reboot, so it's useless for this issue.

Installed ROM with complete wipe. Restored apps+data with Titanium from oxygen 2.0.

oxygen 2.0.1

kernel 2.6.37.2-thalamus-S-gfbb1325 - default kernel

S-OFF, CM7 table

Thanks for any advice. Getting regular alarm clock in the meantime ;)
[Desire Android Development] suiller:
no reboots here, also after 2-3 full days of continuous uptime

there are 3 things based on my experiences, apart gingerbread issues, that can cause bootloops:

1. overclock and/or overheat

2. 3rd part app (maybe not fully compatible with ginger)

3. filling cache partition

my setup is: Ox of course + Ox table + latest .37 vorkkernel + light overclock (128 to 1152 ondemand) trough "Os Monitor" from market (I don't use resident software such as SetCpu)

in my startup as 3rd app I just have: Dr.Web antivirus (resident) + Voice Caller ID (resident too) + Forex + Ntp (auto time update)

Failed to find provider info for calendar

This what logcat shows so perhaps this issue is persistent part of oxygen rom unfortunately
[Desire Android Development] AzureusPT:
Don't you need to subscribe to the week number calendar to be able to display it on Google Calendar? Maybe the problem is with the calendar itself and not witht he ROM.
[Desire Android Development] SimonVT:
What he said.

1. There is no setting in the calendar to show week number.

2. The calendar is built from AOSP source, so it's an Android 'issue'.

3. The issue isn't the calendar only showing first digit of the week number, the issue (if it's an issue at all, the week view, which I assume you're talking about, generally doesn't leave a lot of room for text) is the week view only giving all-day events one (very small) line to show text on.

Find calendar that only shows the number, and not Week 10, for example.
[Desire Android Development] SilverSurger:
as statet a thousand times: This is a Gingerbread-Issue, but it is unsure where it comes from.

I tried it the last week, and noticed something odd:

- 6 days uptime without a reboot-loop, I did not install any 3rd-party apps, but just left the rom untouched.

Then I went ahead and installed some apps, no problem so far.

Then I went ahead and cracked one of my own applications (which - coincidentally - was only built by me to test the easiness of cracking) and installed it. And what happens? After around 2/3-days the phone went into boot-loops. At one point I couldn't even reboot (took battery out, inserted it again and started the phone) - always went straight to the boot-loop. I have to mention I did not try to install the regular-version of my app.

Maybe it is really not an issue with neither the ROM, nor the kernel (which wouldn't make much sense anyways), nor anything but your installed apps.

So there are two theories from my side:

1. The app is not compatible with Gingerbread in some functionality and leads to the break.

or

2. It has something to do with cracked apps, but I could not explaint why/how that should happen.
[Desire Android Development] AzureusPT:
Push Power + Vol. Down + Touchpad to make the Desire hard reboot, this way you don't need to remove the battery.

[Desire Android Development] trinity1:
+1

I suggest people (before) complaining for spontaneus reboots to make an ABSOLUTE FULL COMPLETE wipe.

When I decided to flash oxy (RC7) I did as follows:

deleted ALL sd partitions and recreated (ext included)

wiped cache dalvik

factory reset

flashed oxy table

flashed oxy system

rebooted

flashed thalamus kernel (tried several versions, although the default at time was pretty good)

installed all 3rd apps which I was interested to have onto my desire.

Sometimes I calibrate battery and clean cache

I just had some small issues, nothing really annoying (well, coming from leedroid I have to say that battery drain is an issue for me, but I can live with that, since I charge the phone very day as soon as I come back home).

There are some built in apps (e.g. contacts) which I don't like very much, but that is not related with adamg job.

So, before complaining make sure you read Q&A, FAQs and whatever (as sometimes I forgot to do :p)
